The version posted is an OLD version of the ISO. They keep VERY up-to-date.
The net list tends to fall somewhat behind though. The list is kept on
SH.CS.NET in the info directory as country_codes.txt. You can acquire it via
anonymous FTP.
Here is the latest version:
COUNTRY CODES
International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
This is a list based on the ISO 3166:1988 standard, updated from one
prepared by Mark Horton. Note that the original standard has this same
information sorted into about 6 different orders, both in English and
French, so this is an abbreviated version and not to be taken as the
entire standard. While it has been checked against the standard, it may
possibly contain errors, and the standard and registration newsletters
should be verified for any critical application.
This copy has been updated through registration Newsletter III-13 and is
believed to be current through at least January 1991.

Thanks for the list. There are two small errors in it. Argentina has country number 032, not 023, as listed. Denmark har A3 code DMK, not DNK, as listed. Keep up the good work. </Erik> -- Erik Naggum Professional Programmer +47-2-836-863 Naggum Software Electronic Text <erik@naggum.no> 0118 OSLO, NORWAY Computer Communications <enag@ifi.uio.no>
